In a new trailer intended to show off Mega Man X Legacy Collection 1 and 2’s challenge mode where players can choose to fight two Maverick bosses at the same time, Capcom inadvertently revealed something even more important: the bosses in Mega Man X5 will no longer be named after the members of Guns N’ Roses.
Capcom will release cartridge versions of Mega Man 2 and Mega Man X as limited runs costing $100 a piece alongside production house iam8bit, the two companies said today.

If you think you've heard Mega Man music covered in every possible way, let me point you to this rendition of Spark Mandrill's theme from Mega Man X performed by eight floppy drives.
Back is September, First 4 Figures revealed the first in their new line of Mega Man statues. It was nice, if a bit too Astro Boy for my tastes. Now the company unveils its first Mega Man X statue. That's more like it.
Mega Man fans might not be getting the games they want, but toys? They're good on toys. Just look at this gorgeous thing.
Come for the zombies, stay for the robot boy dress-up party. Capcom's Dead Rising 3 once again lets its protagonist don fabled armor from the fan-favorite franchise, gifting a Mega Man X costume to any brave soul who completes the game. The Mega Buster, on the other hand, (ha!) takes some work.
The spectacularly-bearded Smooth McGroove has an impressive knack for rearranging well-known video game themes in a capella, using only his voice and his cat. He picked a really good one in his latest video, the Spark Mandrill theme from Mega Man X.

Presented to you by Rooster Teeth, this fanimation by Shane Newville sheds some new light on what's really going on behind Mega Man's pixelated veil.
